Chapter 84 Won
Jiang Mian also remembered that Chi Lin had deliberately slammed his gun on the table earlier, looking provocative and contemptuous, just to make the other party fire the first shot, which was an odd number of shots.
Jiang Mian suspected that Chi Lin was lying. The bullet changing position after being fired does not exist; that bullet must be from an even-numbered shot.
This was naturally her guess.
……
The facts were just as Jiang Mian had guessed.
The man fired the ninth shot, but missed.
The tenth shot was fired by Chi Lin, the last shot, and the last bullet left.
This last shot was also the last bullet.
This time, Chi Lin didn't shoot himself; the dark muzzle of the gun was pointed at the man.
In an instant, the man seemed to realize something, his expression suddenly turned fierce, and he laughed angrily: "Good, good, you've been tricked."
"What, can't you handle this?" Chi Lin said casually, his voice low and languid.
The man in the burgundy shirt glanced coldly at Chi Lin, his face dark, and walked straight out of the private room. He passed by Chi Lin without pausing, but stopped next to Jiang Mian and said cryptically, "Beautiful lady, you really have a good dog."
Jiang Mian paused. Was she going to say something?
After saying this, the man didn't say anything more, ignored the two women, and strode out of the private room.
The other subordinates also hurriedly followed suit and left.
"Hey, you two." Chi Lin looked at the two men dressed in brightly colored clothes and called out softly, "Give back the hub space, or this last bullet might end up on one of you."
The two bodyguards looked at each other for a moment, then quickly threw the hub space onto the table and left with their brother Jin.
Chi Lin picked up the hub space, put his own away, and placed Jiang Mian's hub necklace in his palm. He walked over to Jiang Mian and said, "Sister, let me help you put it on."
Jiang Mian had no objection. It just so happened that he was helping her put on the necklace, and she happened to have some questions she wanted to ask him.
Chi Lin naturally placed the delicate necklace on Jiang Mian's slender neck. His long fingers lightly brushed against the girl's neck skin. The cool touch of the young man's fingertips mixed with the cool temperature of the necklace, making Jiang Mian feel a little itchy on her neck.
However, she didn't dwell on this minor matter. She simply asked what she wanted to know: "Does that gun really change the bullet's position every time it's fired? Or did you just poke around randomly?"
Although Jiang Mian already felt that there was a high probability that Chi Lin was just making things up and deliberately trying to frame someone.
“Of course it’s a lie.” Chi Lin chuckled, leaned close to Jiang Mian’s ear from behind, and slowly said, “Now that you’ve seen it, don’t be fooled again, okay?”
So the truth is, Chi Lin set a trap for the other party from the very beginning, luring them into the trap step by step.
This is a game of life and death; there are no winners, only losers. It truly lives up to its name.
Chi Lin put the necklace on Jiang Mian. He stared at her fair back of the neck for a while, feeling a slight itch on his teeth. He really wanted to bite it, and his Adam's apple bobbed slightly.
At this moment, only Chi Lin, Jiang Mian, Qi Xu, and the bald man remained in the huge private room.
At this moment, the bald man seemed eager to leave. Qi Xu grabbed his wrist, her pink eyes filled with a chilling coldness, as if confirming something once again. Her voice was indifferent and inorganic: "If you don't keep your word, I will definitely kill you." "I know, I know!" the bald man said impatiently. "I already said, we'll meet tomorrow in Lane 11 of the outer city!"
Qi Xu didn't say anything more this time and released the bald man's wrist.
The bald man hurriedly walked outside, his gaze instinctively avoiding Jiang Mian and Chi Lin as he passed them, not daring to look at the two ruthless men.
He actually dared to offend Brother Jin; what else could he be but a ruthless person?
The bald man has already left the private room.
Jiang Mian looked at Qi Xu and slowly said, "Can you tell me the reason now?"
Qi Xu slowly walked up to Jiang Mian. He wanted to kneel down, but then he remembered that his master didn't like others kneeling before her, nor did she allow him to kneel before her.
So he gently lowered his head and said, "You can speak now."
“Qi Xu has a younger sister, and I thought she was dead many years ago.” Qi Xu frowned. “Until just now, that bald guy, the one who used to keep me and my sister, told me that my sister is not dead. If I want to see her, I need to help him pay off his debt of ten million star coins. I can’t come up with that amount. Then his creditor said that I could pay off the debt if I had to endure being hit on the head with a hundred bottles of liquor. After the twenty-first bottle, the master came.”
He chuckled softly, a hint of bitterness in his voice, "My parents passed away early, and my sister was born blind. As her older brother, I can't just ignore her. I'm sorry, I've caused trouble for my master."
Qi Xu bowed deeply to Jiang Mian at a ninety-degree angle, his voice soft and hoarse: "Master, if you wish to punish Qi Xu, Qi Xu will have no complaints."
Jiang Mian looked down and saw that the boy's pink hair was stuck together with blood and wine, and his two pink rabbit ears were drooping down, as if he was extremely sad.
Qi Xu was indeed in a bad mood. He had dragged his master into this. He originally wanted to solve it himself, but in the end, he still dragged his master into it.
"I see." Jiang Mian paused, unsure what to say. "It's alright now, it's all in the past. But next time, if anything comes up, be sure to consult me first."
For example, the bald man today only needs to repay his debt, which only requires Star Coins, but Qixu doesn't have any Star Coins, so he can only repay his debt in other ways.
However, if Qixu had told her what he said, she could have afforded ten million star coins; it would have been considered money to buy him a meeting with his sister, and then these things probably wouldn't have happened.
"Qixu has remembered." Qixu pursed her lips slightly.
"Come, come, sit down." Jiang Mian pulled him to the sofa and sat him down. "I've already treated your wound a bit."
She then instructed Chi Lin, "Turn off the ambient lights and turn on the regular lights."
The private rooms are equipped with both standard lighting and ambient lighting.
Chi Lin raised an eyebrow slightly but said nothing. He obediently went to turn the lights on and off.
The light from the incandescent bulb shone down.
Jiang Mian took out a first-aid kit and first treated the wound on Qi Xu's head.
Her fingers carefully parted Qixu's hair.
Chi Lin, feeling a pang of jealousy, said quietly, "Why don't we just take him back and let that lizard treat his wounds?"
Jiang Mian ignored Chi Lin and focused on treating Qi Xu's wounds.
